Tonya and Kyle celebrated their marriage at Magnolia Estate in Miamisburg, Ohio. I picked Magnolia Estates because I wanted a venue where I could have the ceremony outdoors with a nice indoor spot for the reception, Tonya says. Magnolia Estates was beautiful, tucked away from busy streets and high traffic areas, and the owners were so nice!

These bright, striped flats added the perfect bold accent to Tonya's bridal fashion.
Red anemones, peonies and white mums mixed together with queen anne's lace and a few blue accents in the vibrant bridal bouquet.
The groom donned his military uniform as did a groomsmen in the wedding party, but his other attendants wore gray suits with blue accessories and accented them with bright red boutonnieres.
The couple exchanged vows outdoors beneath a grand gazebo structure decorated with bold red and white floral designs.
Escort cards were displayed in an adorable stripe-decorated wooden crate and surrounded by baby's breath floral arrangements and bold pinwheel accents.
Keeping with the bold stripe theme, the couple served popcorn out of traditional packaging along with a few other snacks at the reception.
The perfect accent to a bold stripe wedding theme? A red velvet naked cake. Between rich layers of cake, white buttercream frosting and red flowers gave the cake a statement-making look.
Guests could saddle up to the popcorn machine and grab a salty snack at the reception.
